Charlie had his first SLUH event - a welcome to the class of 2030. Here is a picture of him with some of the other boys from his grade school.
I accompanied a group of students to the Arrupe Leader's Summit in North East, MD. It was bitterly cold. Here is a view of the Chesapeake from my room.
While I was in Maryland, Jim took the kids to Milwaukee to see Jack compete in a curling competition.
I was bummed to miss it, but heard it was very cool to see.
It was so cold I didn't even want to step outside the conference center, but I was treated to many cool views from the windows.
Our group did brave the weather briefly for a picture.
Over President's Day weekend, we went to Echo Bluff State Park with Matt and Sue. We went to mass at a small church nearby and the boys helped rearrange the altar afterwards.
We drove to my cousins' farm one day.
If there are rocks and a river, you can bet you will find us skipping rocks.
We enjoyed a hike in the state park.
We had beautiful weather for February.
I wish Jack could have joined us.
This is a cool picture Jim took of the lodge.
We completed this puzzle.
A cute selfie of Jim and his favorite daughter:
One weekend, I joined the rugby team for an all-day retreat.
While I was at the retreat, Jim, Patrick, and Charlie went to a campout on a family's farm.
The boys got to throw axes.
They cooked a delicious dinner.
Maggie and Charlie competed in the robotics competition.
These girls made a croissant out of clay for one of their challenges.
Patrick was helping another school's robotics club, so we were happy to see him. Doesn't Charlie look happy?
Owen helped with the robotics club at Charlie's and Maggie's school.
After the robotics competition, I took Maggie to her basketball game. Her coach couldn't be there, so I was the stand-in coach. We only had four players. I did the best I could.
Then, after her basketball game, she was a cantor at 5pm Mass. It was a busy day for Maggie!
